There were few people on the streets at night. The night felt as cold as ice. Grace was freezing, and she didn’t know why she felt so uneasy. Mason hadn’t actually done anything, but now that his sister Emma had come back, she felt a lot more insecure. She wasn’t sure whether Mason would upset her or not.
When Grace came back home, she felt very tired, so she went straight to bed without washing. She recalled Mason’s words, and she still remembered his soft tone when he described Emma. It seemed that he relished thinking about these cherished memories. In fact, he may still love his sister even now.
Grace tossed and restlessly turned as she processed the thoughts in her head until she decided that she was unwilling to go on thinking.
The next day, Mason was late. However, as he was president of the company, no one could question him. Grace, however, was worrying. She didn’t know what had happened between him and his sister. Mason didn’t arrive until after ten o’clock. When Grace saw Mason walking to her from far away, she stood up in haste and greeted him formally.
Mason looked at her for a little while, “Come to my office.”
Grace followed him obediently, and she didn’t know whether she should ask him what happened last night. She also thought she shouldn’t ask more because he had assured her that Emma was just his sister. Therefore, she remained silent.
Grace kept her head lowered. Then, unexpectedly, Mason turned around and hugged her after he closed the door. Grace felt surprised, “Mason.”
“I’m sorry to leave you worried,” Mason murmured, “Last night, I took her back to the apartment, and that was it. I only want to be with you, even if she was my girlfriend. Please trust me!”
Grace didn’t know what to say while held in his embrace.
Mason lifted his head and gazed deep into her eyes, “Do you trust me? Would you like to be with me?”
“I…” Grace hesitated for a while, then changed the topic, “What will your sister do now that she’s back?”
“Just handle some procedures, she needs to go abroad in about a week.”
“Okay.” Grace lowered her head and asked, “What about her? Don’t you care about her?”
Mason smiled, “She is not a child. We are having lunch this afternoon. You should come with me. She told me she wanted to see her future sister-in-law.”
“See me?” Grace pointed at herself, a little surprised.
“Yes, don’t you want to go?”
“No.” She thought it was too abrupt. She didn’t know what would happen when she met Emma. However, she was very curious about her, so she nodded, “All right.”
Mason laughed and hugged her again, “You’re so kind. Okay, let’s have lunch this afternoon.”
After work, Grace waited for Mason. They drove the car out of the company building together. Grace still felt a little uneasy and couldn’t help but ask, “Did all your ex-girlfriends go to see your sister?”
Mason was driving, he turned his head around and looked at her, then continued to look ahead and smiled, “Why do you look nervous? I told my sister that you are my destiny, so she was curious to meet you.”
“Destiny?” Grace pointed at herself. She felt satisfied when she saw his smile, and it was one of the most reassuring things that he did. His destiny, For her, it means a great deal. Did he really think that, or was he just trying to comfort her?
She said nothing the whole way to lunch. To Grace’s surprise, Emma was waiting for them when they arrived at the restaurant. Grace followed Mason inside. When she noticed them, Emma stood up, and Grace finally saw her.
Emma looked like a young undergraduate in a tracksuit and wore her hair in a high ponytail. The most noticeable thing about her was that she was very beautiful. When she smiled, there were two sweet dimples on her face, which were incredibly attractive. She smiled at Grace as she walked in and greeted her, “Hello, are you, Miss Tyler? I’m Emma.” Her voice was gentle and soft. It made Grace feel comfortable.
Grace didn’t see her as a rival when they first met, but she did sense a great distance between them, from her age to her temperament. No wonder Mason described her as a dream girl, no one could compare to her.
Grace felt a little intimidated, but she dared not to show her insecurity on the surface. She just smiled, “Hello, I’m Grace. Nice to meet you!” The two girls shook hands, then sat down.
Before ordering the meal, they talked to each other for a while. Looking at Grace, Emma smiled and talked to Mason, “It is so lucky of you to find such a good girlfriend. You should cherish her.”
Mason laughed and answered, “I’m really lucky to have both a good sister and a good girlfriend!”
While Emma and Mason laughed away, Grace sat beside them, feeling embarrassed as they had so many common interests and happily chatted with such ease. Grace was so quiet and didn’t like to say too much. Furthermore, their happy chat made her even quieter than before. Although they both tried to chat with her so as not to exclude her from their conversation, she still failed to follow their topics.
When the waiter came to take their order, they finally stopped talking. Mason passed the menu to Grace to let her order, and the waiter also gave a menu to Emma.
